As a second followup to this, I've built a version of HTMLTidy which  
does not strip empty elements where a class attribute is present. You  
can download a copy from http://ben-ward.co.uk/files/tidy-microformats.zip

It's built on Mac OSX (Intel), and I can't recall what the deal is  
with OSX binaries running on other forms of UNIX. However, I've  
included the diff, so it should be trivial to compile other builds on  
other platforms as required.

Cheers,

Ben
